Wow... nine days to go. Mike and I have been completely overwhelmed by the vastness of the experience we're planning for. It would be hard enough if we were just planning routes and finding lodging. But we're acutely aware of the fact that this is a once in a lifetime kinda trip, and we have no idea when (if ever) we'll ever be back in some of these places with time to explore.
So we've been spending pretty much the entire week (not an exaggeration, actually) with our lappys open, making lists of all of the "must see" places we'll be going through. And, friends (or, more likely, friend), there just aren't enough hours in the day. There are parks, lakes, forests, and waterfalls. There are libraries, museums, monuments, and walking tours. And theaters, and concert halls. And sports complexes. And hundreds of uncategorizable random things that aren't even counting the things we'll find as we drive by them on the highway. Did you know that Salem, MA has a Wax Museum of Witches and Seafarers? Not that I at all wanna go, but still...
Without seeing any of the South, and while only seeing half of what we want to see and spending only two days in New York, our trip is going to take more than a month.
Can you believe this country?

RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was totally gonna say "redonkulous" but mike already said ridiculous so now it seems trite and unoriginal. I think u should try and make email/pen pals with as many people along the way as you can!
but.. but.. but... SALEM MA. has the haus of seven gables!!! YOU! must see it!!! NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE! Ooooh!
bexx!
Don't worry Bexx, we're definitely going to Salem. We're prolly just going to skip the wax museum. Especially when we have so many other choices, including the Salem Witch Museum, the Witch House, and the Witch Dungeon Museum.
Also, I don't know whether "Nathaniel Hawthorne" has ever previously been typed in all caps, followed by an exclamation point and an "Ooooh!"
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! for visiting SALEM! If I could, I would move there in a heartbeat.. I've 2 places I could live.. Salem, and New Orleans.. HANDS DOWN!
the witch museums are so very kick ass.. I've seen 'em all. you guys can get all CRUCIBLE on their asses!!
I do, in fact, look forward to gettin Crucible on their asses. They'll need a Goody Proctorologist to extract that play from between their cheeks!!
